    Default 360 controller rumble feedback?

    Is it possible to get the rumble in the 360 controller to work with any emu's, specifically PJ64? I'd like some rumble for games like Goldeneye...could really enhance the whole thing.

    If it's enabled in the settings in your control panel > gamepads. Then yeah, go into PJ64 and set the input on the joypad to rumble pak.

    Hmm...in PJ64 there's only an option for Memory Pak, and in Control Panel > Gamepads I don't see anything about rumble at all. All I can do is calibrate, and test out various buttons/axes.

    What version of PJ64 are you using?
    And what input plugin are you using?

    PJ 64 v1.6
    Jabo's DirectInput7 - my primary one, usually works fine.
    NRage's Direct-Input8 V2 1.80a - so then I tried this one, and all the rumgble settings were greyed out.

    I then tried uninstalling the controller(which had default MS drivers) and installing XBCD drivers. So I go into the XBCD setup utility, and all the options are greyed out, and in the drop down device box, it's empty. Isn't this supposed to be compatible with the 360 controller? I read people using those drivers so they could use their 360 controllers with ePSXe. So after that didn't work, I just re-installed the default drivers and now I'm back where I started.

    EDIT: I got the XBCD working now, using this guide:
    http://xbcd360guide.50webs.com/guide.html

    And now a RumblePak option is available in Jabo's Plugin, and the rumble options are not greyed out in the N-Rage plug-in. But...I still can't get any rumble at all. I can get rumble in my XBCD360 Setup, but not in the emu..

    Use Nrage's input plugin. It has full compatability for all rumble controllers and even has a feature for the transfer pak.

    [EDIT]
    Oops didn't see that you tried N-Rage's plugin. Are you sure you have all the setting correct and that the game you are playing supports rumble?

    Hmm...I'm pretty sure these games support rumble. Now I've got a different problem. Rumble is malfunctioning and activating incorrectly. For example, if I run Perfect Dark, the rumble just activates and stays that way till I shut down the rom. If I play Goldeneye. rumble activates once every few seconds. This is using the normal Jabu's plugin and enabling the Rumble Pak. If I switch over to N-Rage, the rumble settings can be altered, but there is no rumble in the game at all.

    UPDATE: A screen of my N-Rage rumble settings:

    Afterwards, I found a version 2.00b, which isn't much different. But in the rumble settings, there is a button that says "Test Rumble". Clicking this made the rumble in the controller work each time. So I save my settings(which are exactly the same as the ones in the pic above, only thing added in the new version is the ability to test) and try out some more games and still, no rumble in them at all.

    UPDATE: 2
    Ok, now I checked out 1964, and rumble works perfectly there. Only downside is savefile formats are different, and there are more incompatible roms. I guess if I want rumble, I'll just have to use 1964. But if I want better compatibility and less video errors, I'll go with PJ64.
